Why The Whining? If it’s any consolation, just about every child goes through a whining phase (or two) at some point, and it’s not indicative of a fatal flaw in our child or our parenting. Here’s how to help toddlers get what they need in a manner that’s easier on the ears and nerves. Don’t let it rattle you. Some say to ignore behaviors like whining, but since that might be misinterpreted as deliberately turning away and ignoring the child’s existence, I believe in staying present and available, just disengaging from the whine. Imagine yourself wearing an annoyance filter (an invention that could make billions, I’m sure). Take a deep breath and remind yourself that your child’s behavior is perfectly normal, but that you don’t want to encourage it. If we grant our child’s request to appease the whining, or react negatively, we might do just that. Gentle guidance. Calmly and nonjudgmentally say something like “It sounds like you’re uncomfortable, but it’s hard for me to understand you. Can you tell me in your normal voice?” If the whining continues, return to whatever you might have been doing and then after a moment try again. Or, you might ask the child some questions about what he wants while reminding him to please answer in his normal voice. Rest, food, drink, comfort. Whiners aren’t functioning at their best, often as the result of not enough of these things. Remember, your toddlers are growing rapidly, tire easily, and have low blood sugar attacks before they realize they’re hungry. They’re also sprouting two year molars, which is bound to create discomfort (and also interfere with sleep). Whiners might be on the verge of an emotional explosion. Whining can be a sign that strong feelings of frustration, disappointment, sadness and anger need to be expressed. If these feelings appear, welcome them, allow the feelings to run their course completely (in that moment and as a general rule) and the whining will likely cease. Maya dela Rosa (played by Jodi Sta. Maria) is a simple girl from a humble barrio in Mindoro who has proven that wishes do come true. Her fairy tale adventure starts. American-born Gogol, the son of Indian immigrants, wants to fit in among his fellow New Yorkers, despite his family's unwillingness to let go of their traditional ways. 6 Minute English - How would you like to pay?

Give undivided, positive attention. Even newborn babies know whether or not they have our full attention, and a day’s worth of half- attention doesn’t fulfill our child’s needs. As Magda Gerber writes in Your Self- Confident Baby, our children need to periodically receive the message “You are important. You are number one right now.”Magda encouraged parents to take advantage of feeding, bathing, diapering and dressing as natural opportunities for one- on- one attention. She also recommended periods of “wants nothing” quality time, time when we allow our child to be the initiator of activities while we observe, support, respond and participate as the child requests. Unfortunately, no matter how much attention we give our children, they’ll still try out whining when we aren’t observing and listening to them. But if they don’t get encouraging results, this too shall pass.

English at Work (BBC podcast)BBC Learning English begins a new series focusing on English communication in the office, called English at Work. Join Neil in this special introductory programme as he finds out about the characters who work in Tip Top Trading. Here are today’s key phrases. A good example that comes to mind. Thanks for joining me on English at Work – a new series of programmes set in an office, full of top tips to help you learn some useful business language which you could use in the workplace. In the next few minutes you can join me on an introductory tour around one of London’s biggest imitation plastic fruit manufacturers, called Tip Top Trading. We’re going to hear from some of the employees that work so hard to keep the business running smoothly. So come on then! Let’s step into the office and eavesdrop on Tip Top Trading’s possible newest recruit. Well, I mean, apart from the ones I don’t like of course! Secondly, I know Tip Top. Trading is one of the fastest- growing companies in London, and I want to be part of that. Paul: That’s absolutely right. Tip Top Trading is the fastest- growing company in the plastic fruits sector. Well said, Anna! If she gets that job I’m sure she’ll be an asset to the company. The decision is in the hands of Manager, Paul, who we heard there. He’s a nice guy really, a little disorganised, but when things go wrong he’s got to take charge. Two clients came in with serious complaints. Mrs Kumquat received a delivery of imitation bananas that were purple – not very convincing, and Mr Lime ordered grapefruits, but got pineapples. Tom! Tom: Yeah, listen. But it seems that Mrs Kumquat left our offices even angrier than when she came in and she says she will never use Tip Top Trading again! Tom: I tried my best. Paul: Hmmm. Ah yes, Tom! I hadn’t warned you about Tom, one of the company’s top Sales Executives – he’s good. So what’s the latest, are we on? Listen to this! Insert. Tom: My computer has crashed. I’ve lost my phone. And there’s a big, BIG problem with my timetable. I have two meetings scheduled at the same time with two extremely important clients. I can’t do them both at once! See what I mean! Now, every office needs a good office assistant – and Tip Top Trading is no exception. It’s got Denise, who’s there to assist, organise and sometimes make the tea! She likes to talk! Denise do that!’ I’m telling you Sharon, I’ve almost had enough! I get treated like I’m some kind of servant! That’s Denise! I think we’ll just leave the office now and let them get on with their work(DOOR CLOSES)So that’s Tip Top Trading. There are plenty of other people we’ll meet along the way – so go on – why don’t you join me for English at Work from bbclearningenglish. The Namesake (2. 00. IMDb. Edit. Storyline.
